* Jetpack and spacedrift: Fixes and niceties
Ok so when I ported spacemovement onto movement loop,
I neglected to port this behavior that existed to support jetpacks.
Basically, if something that lets you move while spacedrifing
completes a move while you're spacedrifting, the
drift should "disable" to let it complete, and then later restart.
I neglected to add support for that, so that's what this does.
There's some other stuff going on here, mostly things to let jetpacks
ignore some of drift's extra behavior, since when a jetpack is not on
stablized, we want both to coexist.
It's a bit of a mess, I'm sorry about that.
Oh and at temporal's suggestion I've moved the visual_delay set from
newtonian move to an istype on the drift component, that was a good
idea, thanks quiet
* Makes dropping a pull while drifting carry the momentum into the pulled thing\
* Adds some extra context to Process_Spacemove, fixes a bunch of stupid
space bugs
It used to be, if you called Process_Spacemove with a direction, it
assumed you were an "action", so a client or mob trying to move in a
direction.
Unfortuantely for it, I needed to be able to use direction to make mob
pull drifting work. So we now actually pass in a second variable
called continuous_move, which tracks if this Process_Spacemove is on
behalf of a continuous move or not
In addition to this, I've added logic to bumping "off" someone to
prevent backbumping if that makes sense, since the bump is in the form
of a newtonian move that's run before the thing that's bumping actually
moves, we need some way to exclude it from holding the other object in
place.
* Adds a jetpack component, uses it to unify all three versions of
jetpacking
I hate you fikou
There were three copies of the same behavior, which made it hard to fix
stuff. Let's just componentize it
* Fixes jetpacks stabalizing even without fuel
This is mildly hacky. The real fix is to do this with events, but I
really don't wanna bend my brain like that. This'll do
* Ensures turn_off always has a user)
* Shut pu

Doubles the range of the MOD Pathfinder AI
Fixes modules rendering below the suit.
Adds the ability for modules to be used when inactive.
Documents/cleans up some code.
Updates some old descriptions and explains some concepts better.
Armor Booster and Ash Accretion can no longer boost your speed over no slowdown at all.
Makes flashlight module start with 4 instead of 3 range, so it's better for people that don't know about configuration.
Doubles t-ray module range, from 2 to 4 (t-ray scanner is 3).
Puts the noslip module lower in progression, lowers its' price to 2.
New sprites for the magnetic harness module by Onule.
Brings back the holster module, it can now be used when the suit is inactive, can be printed with security suit research.
Adds the power kick module for the ERT Commander. It's a powerful kick.
refactors our disease code a tiny bit
removes permeability_coefficient variable from clothing, it decided how much stuff like chems or disease passed through your clothes, while BIO armor only decided how much you could spread diseases yourself, making it pretty much laughable
permeability_coefficient is now fully rolled into bio armor, so your bio protecting stuff will now protect you from other biological hazards like blobs
Have you ever noticed that the chemical smoke and chemical foam reactions are a lot less effective in confined spaces? This is because they currently attempt to spread to all tiles within n steps of their origin. If they can't expand onto a tile they get blocked and the expanding cloud/flood misses out on all the tiles that would be in range, but that can't be reached.
Obviously smoke and foam getting blocked by walls and the like makes intuitive sense, but it seemed a bit nonsensical that walls would basically delete a significant chunk of an expanding, amoebic mass. The solution I came up with is making smoke and foam expand until they cover a certain area, with a shared tracker for the target size and total size of the flood. The flood will simply expand as normal until it covers the desired target area. Blocked expansions just don't count and will be made up for with expansion elsewhere.
Attendant to these changes are a whole bunch of minor code improvement to smoke, foam, and one for wizard spells because I was already in the area and :pain:.
There have been some minor balance changes to the chemical smoke and foam reactions:
I converted them over to passing the desired area of the resulting smoke cloud/foam flood. The old equation for the resulting area was along the lines of 2sqrt(x)(sqrt(x) + 1) + 1 given reaction volume x and given unobstructed expansion. I've made them just pass around 2x instead. This is actually less than they used to try for, but now they're guaranteed to reach that unless the flood is fully contained. Not entirely certain if buff or nerf. Probably buff on the station.
Also, foam dilution is now based on covered area instead of target expansion range. Since this scales faster than it used to foam has been effectively nerfed at high volumes. To compensate for this I removed the jank 6/7 effect multiplier and increased the base reagent scaling a bit. Again, not certain if buff or nerf.
* Removes all supurfolus uses of QDEL_HINT_LETMELIVE
This define exists to allow abstract, sturucturally important things to
opt out of being qdeleted.
It does not exist to be a "Immune to everything" get out of jail free
card.
We have systems for this, and it's not appropriate here.
This change is inherently breaking, because things might be improperly
qdeling these things. Those issues will need to be resolved in future,
as they pop up
* Changes all needless uses of COMSIG_PARENT_PREQDELETED
It exists for things that want to block the qdel. If that's not you,
don't use it
* Adds force and hard del verbs, for chip and break glass cases
respectively
The harddel verb comes with two options before it's run, to let you
tailor it to your level of fucked
* Damn you nova
Adds proper parent returns instead of . = ..()

Allows for MODsuit control units to be worn on slots that isn't the bag slot and actually work.
So far no MODsuits will actually use this, but I would like to add one in the future, I'm just not motivated to do the MODsuit itself, so I'm adding the support for it at least to see if it would be approved.
Lawyer tie modsuit will be real in 2023.
This doesn't really change the game much so I don't know how much I actually have to explain here.
* makes hud images only apply by z level
* makes some of the atom_hud procs have better names
* fixes warning with the hud_user list and adds better documentation
* better docs for hud_images
* removes TODOs
* docs for hud_list
* adds support for linked z levels so mobs can see lower ones
* fixes merge conflict and shittily makes only shocked airlocks get added
* adds support for setting images in the hud as active and inactive
* gets rid of unatomic spatial grid change
* maybe i should actually try COMPILING my changes
* fixes merge skew and makes it compile again
* fixes huds refusing to remove from users who changed z level
* improves z level and registration logic
* fixes antag huds not appearing
* Fixes antag huds not properly setting. We now use hud_list in init, so it needs to be set before the new call, not after. Not sure why the use of appearance key was split like this, but none else knows either so none can stop me
* Ensures that hiding a basic appearance also hides the atom's active list too
* Fixes antag huds going poof
Ensures that remove_atom_from_hud will return false if the passed atom
isn't managed by it
This fixes antag huds disappearing randomly, since they assumed that if
the parent call of remove_atom_from_hud returned true, we should delete
ourselves. This is a safe assumption for them to make, since they should
only ever have one atom.
Does kinda bork if we call remove_atom_from_hud in a way that is unsure
if the passed atom is actually in that list. We were forced into doing
this by how atom huds use the qdeleting signal.
* makes basic alternate_appearance's only update themselves when setting their hud image to active and makes them not add themselves to the global huds_by_category list
* fixes mistake with hud_users list being set non associatively (bad)
* as anything in bot path loops
* Fixes merge skew problems
* Makes bot paths non global
This way they can show themselves to only the bot that "owns" them, ya
feel me?
* Fixes huds not showing up sometimes, cleans up some code
Post Kapu's limb refactor, we were calling prepare_huds twice in a human
init call chain. What was happening was this:
call prepare_huds() // Human
I gained a new hud image
I set active hud icons to mirror it
call prepare_huds() // Living
I overwrote the new hud image
I attempted to set active hud icons, which failed because it assumes
this can never happen
*cries*
* Renames add_hud_to_atom to show_to
My hope is this will make understanding hud code a bit easier, by tying
the behavior to a "verb" more closely. Also renamed a few vars
* remove_hud_from_mob -> hide_from
* Nitpicks a few comments
* Whoops/fuck/shit/damn it all/hhhhhhhhhhhh
* Moves check down, improves stack trace a bit

New anomaly, the hallucination anomaly. It has small bursts of hallucinations while alive followed by a big one in the moment of the end.
More anomalies are fun, i'm planning to add more of these
added the hallucination anomaly, spawnrate similar to the flux one, can spawn from the SM if eer are over 5000, can spawn when the SM delams (higher rate than the grav one), you can make the hallucination reactive armor
* FINALLY. I'VE KILLED IT. I CAN LIVE MY LIFE NOW.
I hate the fucking Toggle Research Scanner action button so god damn much. Why the fuck would I ever not want this to be on? Why do you think I'm wearing the fucking goggles? That stupid button is so annoying to use. Even if I'm NOT using the research scanner aspect of the goggles, that little shit floats there, taking up space on my screen, taunting me.

Sorts MODsuit icon files into clothing and modules
Makes it so modules (specifically armor booster here, but also the loader arms and ash accretion) can be colored like the control unit. and also lets them use any icon file for the overlay, so downstreams dont suffer
Resprites the Syndicate MODsuit to a sleeker design, also abandoning the armor booster cutting like a third of the sprite out, instead its similar to the elite suit, where being in space mode just gives you a different helmet design, being slits rather than eyes
About The Pull Request
I noticed a lot of strange and un-intuitive behavior in action buttons, and got stung by the bloat bug. Damn it hug #58027
I'll do my best to explain what I've changed and why, might get a bit long.
If you want a better idea, read the commits. Most of em are pretty solid, if long.
Whelp. Here we go.
How do action buttons currently work
All action buttons are draggable, to any place on the screen. They're held in an actions list on the player's mob.
Their location in this list determines their position on the top of the screen. If one is dragged away from the top, its position in the list is "saved". This looks really bad.
If two buttons are dragged over each other, their positions swap. (inside the actions list too)
If a button is shift clicked, it is brought back to the position it started at.
If the action collapse button that you likely just mentally edit out is alt clicked, it resets the position of all action buttons on the screen.
If an action is ctrl clicked, it is "locked". This prevents any future position changes, and also enables a saving feature. With this saving feature, locked button positions persist between rounds. So your first o2 canister will always start where you saved it, etc.
Actions and buttons are a one to one link. While there is functionality to share action buttons between two players, this means showing the same object to both. So one player can move a button on another's screen. Horrendous.
This also makes code that modifies properties of the screen object itself very clunky.
Why is this bad
A: None knew pretty much any of this information. It is actually documented, just in a horribly formatted screen tip on the collapse button, you know the one we all mentally delete from the hud.
B: None of this is intuitive. Dragging buttons makes the hud look much worse, and you get no feedback that you even can drag them. Depressing
C: We use actions to make new options clear to the player. This means players can have a lot of action buttons on the hud. This gets cluttery
D: The collapse button is useless. It lets you clear your screen if someone like me fucks up and gives you 2000 actions, but outside of that it just hides all information from you. You never want to see none of your action buttons, just a filtered list of them.
E: On a technical level, they're quite messy, and not fully functionally complete. This is depressing.
What I've done
Assuming the above to be true, how do we fix them?
Well first I'm going to go over everything I changed, including links to major commits. I'll then describe the finished product, and why I made the decisions I did.
Oh and I've moved some of the more niche or technical discussion to dropdowns. Hopefully this makes finding the major functional changes easier
Adds helper procs for turning screen_loc strings into more manageable arrays. This doesn't fully support all of the screen_loc spec, but it's enough for what I'm doing. (f54865f)
Uses these helper procs to improve existing code (6273b93)
Fixes an issue with tooltip code itself. If you tried to hold down a mouse button while dragging onto a tooltip enabled object, it would silently fail. The js made assumptions about the order args came in, which broke when buttons were held down (e0e42f6)
Adds a signal linked to /client/Click(). Surprised we didn't have this before honestly (c491a4a)
Makes /client/MouseDrag() return parent. If we don't do this, any overrides of MouseDrag will never actually be called (2190b2a)
Refactors how action buttons work under the hood (53ccce2)
Basically, rather then generating one button per action, we generate one button per viewer
Starts to change button behavior, more cleanup
Changes the mouse cursor when an action button is dragged. Hopefully
this makes moving things feel less like an accident, and makes you doing
it more clear
Removes the moved and locked vars. This will be more relevant later, but
for now:
Moved exists as a sort of budget "We've been dragged" variable. We can
handle this more cleanly, and the movable type doesn't care about it
Locked is a very old variable that is also not something that the
movable type "owns". It's more an action button thing that's been moved
down.
It exists so an action can be locked in place, and in that locking, be
treated as a "saved location"
(21e20fc)
Because I've nuked move, we don't need to directly set our button's
position. We can use the default_button_position var instead. This is
quite handy.
Please ignore position_action, I will explain that later
(83e265e)
Removes the buttons locked pref
It was another obscure part of action buttons, basically do buttons
start "locked" or not. See previous discussion of locked
(b58b1bd)
Major rework starts here
Alright. Sorry for this, this is where me not commiting regularly starts
to suck. I'll do my best though.
Rather then figuring out an action button's position via a combination
of the moved and ordered vars, we use a separate location var to store
one of a few defines. This makes life later much easier.
Adds tooltip support for dragging action buttons. The way the tooltip
just froze in place when dragging really bugged me, and lead to some
nasty visual artifacts.
This is a bit messy because the drag procs are horrible, but it's
workable
Dropping a button on another button will no longer swap their positions
Behavior instead depends on the target button.
If it's a part of a group (A concept I will explain later) the dragged
button is simply inserted before it in the group's list.
If it's floating on the general hud, we instead position the dragged
button to its right. There's extra logic here to ensure buttons will
never overflow the screen, but I'll get into that later.
Alright. That's most of the refactoring. Time for the larger behavior
changes.
Adds a button palette. This is a separate dropdown that renders
underneath buttons.
image
The idea is to allow for a conceptual separation between "important"
buttons and the ones that end up cluttering the screen.
You can click on the dropdown to open it, then any later clicks that
don't involve actions in some way will autoclose it.
My goal is to come up with an alternative for the action button that
just acted as a way to hide all buttons on screen. Not convinced it saw
much use.
As a side effect of removing that, I've moved its tooltip stuff to the
palette. I've properly formatted it, so hopefully it's easier to read
then the jumble that we used to have.
(You can alt click the palette button to reset all button positions)
Oh and the palette can scroll, since as you'll see later it has a
limited size.
image
Moving on from that, I've added what amounts to action landing buttons.
These allow buttons to rejoin groups, or be positioned at the end of a
line of buttons.
image
They've got a 32x32 hitbox, and only show up when dragging. Hopefully
this makes the system more clear just by dragging an action.
Oh and I've changed how button position updating works. The old system
of calling update_action_buttons on mob every time an action button
changes position is gone, mostly because I've setup more robust
grouping. Will discuss when I get to huds
(0d1e93f)
Adds the backbone behind action button position changes (94133bd)
Moves hud defines to the global folder, safer this way (7260117)
Adds color changing to the palette button, giving some heads up for buttons being inserted into the palette automatically
image
image
Ensures a landing button is always shown, even if it needs to break the
max row rule
Makes palettes auto contract if they have no buttons inside them
Prevents palettes from being opened if they have no buttons inside them
(f9417f3)
How it looks
2022-02-26.02-30-10.mp4
Why It's Good For The Game
Players have more control over the clutter on their screen.
Buttons are available, but not in the way,
Since any player move of a button saves it, any lack of clarity in the way buttons work will be forced out by buttons not just resetting when a new game starts.
We don't overlap any existing screen elements, unless the upper button list gets really long.
The code is much less crummy (I think, may have made it worse it's hard for me to judge my own work)
If it ends up not being as usable as I'd like, I'll rip out the existing changes and just implement the qol and backend stuff. I think it's worth doing though.
Changelog
cl
add: Expanded heavily on action buttons
add: Adds an action button dropdown that sits just under the normal list in the top left. You can drag new buttons onto it to insert them. Click on it to show its contents, do what you want to do, then click again anywhere to contract it. Alt click it to reset all button positions
add: Action buttons will now remember their position between rounds. So if you really like your flashlight right next to your player for some reason, we support that now
add: When you start to drag an action button, docking ports will appear in places that it can be inserted into. (Outside of just floating somewhere on your screen of course)
del: Removed action button locking, and the associated preference. I'm reasonably sure literally none uses this, but if you do hit me up
qol: Dragging an action button will now give you an outline of its size around your cursor
fix: You can no longer cause the screen to expand by putting an action button on the edge of widescreen, and then resizing to standard.
refactor: Refactors action and button code significantly. lots of little things.

headcoder wanted me to do it so lets go
every modsuit now has some amount of armor, this armor is pretty minor (ranging from 5 to 20) and department-dependant (engineers have more laser armor due to having to deal with emitters and whatnot, security suits have more bullet armor etc)
the wound armor values got nerfed for some of the suits

About The Pull Request
Alternative to #65354
Ok so like, there was a lot of not floor types on /floor. They didn't actually want any of their parent type's functionality, except maybe reacting to breaking (which was easy to move down) and some other minor stuff.
Part of what we don't want them to have is "plateable" logic.
I should not be able to put floor tiles on the snow and be fine. It's dumb.
Instead, I've moved all non floor types down to a new type, called /misc.
It holds very little logic. Mostly allowing pipes and wires and preventing blob stuff.
It also supports lattice based construction, which is one of the major changes here. I think it makes more sense, and it fixes an assumption in shuttle code that assumed you couldn't place "a new tile" by just hitting some snow with a floor tile.
Oh and lattices don't smooth with asteroid tiles anymore, this looks nicer I think.
Moving on to commits, and minor changes
Changes clf3 to try and burn any turfs it's exposed to, instead of just floors
Moves break_tile down to the turf definition, alongside burn_tile
If you're in basic buildmode and click on anything that's not handled in a targeted way, you just build plating
FUNCTION CHANGE: you can't use cult pylons to convert misc tiles over anymore
Generalizes building floors on top of something into two helper procs on /turf/open, reducing copypasta
Adds a new turf flag, IS_SOLID, that describes if a turf is tangible or not.
Uses this alongside a carpet and open check to replace plating and floor checks in carpet code. This does mean that non iron tiles can be carpeted, but I think that's fine
Moves the /floor update_icon -> update_visuals call to /open
This change is horrificly old, dating back to 8e112f6 but that commit describes nothing about why it was done. Choosing to believe it was a newfriend mistake. Uncomfortable nuking it though, because of just how old it is. Moving down instead
Create a buildable "misc" type off open, moves /dirt onto it
Basically, we want a type we can use to make something support
construction, since that can be a messy bit of logic. Also enough
structure to set things up sanely.
I'm planning on moving most misc turfs onto it, if only because
constructing on a dirt tile with rods should be possible, and the same
applies to most things
Murders captain planet, disentangles /turf/open/floor/grass/snow/basalt
Adds a diggable component that applies the behavior of "digging"
something out from a turf.
Uses it to free the above pain typepath into something a bit more
sensible
The typepaths that aren't actually used by floor tiles are moved onto
/misc
The others are given names that better describe them, and kept in
fancy_floor
Oh and snowshoes don't work on basalt anymore, sorry
Snowed over platings now actually have broken/burned icon states, fixing black holes to nowhere
Misc turfs no longer smooth as floors, so lattices will ignore them
Placing a lattice will no longer scrape the tile it's on
Ok this is a really old one.
I believe this logic is a holdover from kor's baseturf pr
(97990c9)
It used to be that turfs didn't have a concept of "beneath" and instead
just decided what should be under them by induction. This logic of "if
it's being latticed scapeaway to space" made sense then, but has since
been somewhat distorted
We do want to scape away on lattice spawn sometimes, mostly when we're
being destroyed, but not always. We especially don't want to scape away
if someone is just placing a rod, that's dumb.
Adds a path updating script for this change
I've done my best to find all the errors this repathing will pull out, but I may have missed some. I'm sorry.
Why It's Good For The Game
Very old code made better, more consistent turfs for lavaland and icebox, better visuals, minor fix to snowed plating, demon banishment in lattice placement, fixes the icebox mining shuttle not being repairable
Changelog
cl
add: Rather then being tileable with just floor tiles, lavaland turfs, asteroid and snow (among other things) now support lattice -> floor tile construction
fix: Because of the above, you can now properly fix the icebox mining shuttle
refactor: Non floor turfs are no longer typed as floor. This may break things, please yell at me if it does
